Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Giving handouts to corporations is par for the course. Not a fundamental change.
I guess since you have proven completely incapable of debunking anything I've actually said, making shit up is a great alternative.
You have a poor grasp on the idea of "fundamental change." You seem to be of the opinion that it means "pissing about at the edges and doing as little as possible." Also, the House has no filibuster and the Senate could have eliminated the filibuster forever at any time with a simple majority vote, which is all it takes to alter Senate rules.
Been more supportive than he was. But I'm not going to pretend that what he did for Ukraine is in any way a deviation from the norm. It was not a fundamental change.
Considering BBB didn't pass, yeah. I don't give credit for non-accomplishments.
You asked, and I provided a list of broken promises. If Biden wanted to say he kept his word, he should have kept his word.
"You don't know how government works" is just what centrists say when they're wrong. You've said some variant of it three times in this comment alone.
Well, that wasn't the position I stated. Wages should go up because prices have gone up without a wage increase since 2009.
Now to address your strawman directly: An hour of a person's life is not worth less in Utah. No matter how much you think that that person is worth less.
